66 inches?


Who's putting that out as a spec?


66 inches AT WHAT DISTANCE??   66 inches is meaningless.


There's a reason most places spec it in MOA - so you can figure out if the scope has enough elevation for your needs.   (if it doesn't, you can look at angled bases for rifles like the Rem 700)


66 inches could be a ton of adjustment or virtually none, depending on the distance we're talking about.

That's a meaningless number.

Not surprising, since it's a meaningless number.

Those morons at Cabela's didn't really know what they were writing.
